inch worm hatching

We found an inch worm in our yard. We brought it in the house to observe it. Then to our surprise it cocooned. I did not even know inch worms went into a cocoon. after several weeks of it being in the cocoon, we though my it died.

We had always checked it every day still. One day we neglected to check it, one day we saw our cat batting at the cage, and we scolded that cat "don't bother that"! It was only latter that day we saw why she was so interested. it had came out of it's cocoon!

So after a whole season (winter) probably 3-5 months. We had a beautiful moth.


I'm sorry I don't have any photos of the moth to show, my computer crashed and I lost all my photos. I learned the hard way to back any stuff up that you care about or need in the future. But I do have a video of the inch worm.
